can i change that 'ugly' platinum-grey appearance in SL?

I'm not really diggin this gray window look. All I see in the appearance prefs is either 'blue' or 'graphite', which as far as I can tell, merely changes the color of the little buttons on the upper right side....and then there just the highlight color. I don't get it....shouldn't there be more options...outside of some kind of third party tinkering tool?

You can change between blue & graphite, change the icons, screen saver and desktop picture.
Mac users don't work full screen so the desktop is usually visible either side of the open window & blends in nicely.

No third party skinning apps available for Leopard or Snow Kitty although that may change in the future if you want to risk it.

Firstly, it's Snow Leopard...

... ok I feel slightly better now.

And secondly, incorrect on no third party skinning apps available for Leopard. See: Magnifique

(Note I said for Leopard, not Snow Leopard. They're working on a update, though.)

for the past 2 years i use firefox 90%. then, under tiger, when i updated safari to 4.0.3, it broke...just beachball city...a guy showed me a way to fix it but... i need to be using opendns's ip addresses. if i take them out, it beachballs again and i have to go thru the process of trashing a bunch of files blah blah

so now with SL, since i haven't installed FF, think i'm going on the safari as my main browser... probably cause SL is a *new* and *fresh*
